Caramel Custard Cups

2000

  Dec 20, 2000   
      1 Cup granulated sugar
      4 1/2 cups evaporated milk, reduced fat not fat-free
      1 vanilla bean, split in half or 1 teaspoon vanilla
      1 1/2 Cup egg substitute
     
      In a heavy skillet, heat 1/2 Cup sugar and 2Tablespoons water without stirring until golden.
      Put 1 Tablespoon in each of 8 custard cups (8 oz size).
     
      Mix the rest into a large sauce pan and bring to a boil. (I prefer to do this in a double boiler). Use a whisk to whip in the egg substitute. If you used a vanilla bean, remove it.
      Pour mixture into the cups.
      The 8 cups should sit in 1-2" of water in a 3" deep pan.
      Bake at 350 for 40 minutes until it passes the knife test.
      Remove the custard dishes from the pan and cool overnight.
